A good crossing from Dover to Dunkirk, it should have been Calais but a slight error in the on line booking process and concentrating on the price and not the destination. Quite a trip from Dunkirk, a number of traffic jams that culminated in hitting Rouen at rush hour. Anyway that's all behind us and we are at a very nice Aire overlooking a small lake. Mr D, our slow cooker has provided the evening meal again and now settling down for the night. Another 4 hour or so trip tomorrow.
We arrived at lunchtime in Arnedillo and drove straight to the aire. Very good level site with motorhome service point 2 toilets and free wifi. Electricity is extra. We had a quick look around town after lunch. Several bars and restaurants a supermarket and a wine and vegetable shop. The are is famous for the vultures soaring above the jagged peaks. Day 2 We decided ona walk along the Via Verde and up in the hills to a sanctuary. Not a very nice walk, hard going up a small river valley to the sanctuary and then on an indistinguishable track on the side of the hill. Not our sort of walking so we backtracked to the VV. A bit of urgent shopping and back to the van to find shade for the afternoon. Day 3 We decided on a cycle trip today allong the Via Verde that goes from Arnedillo to Callahora. We did not intend to do the whole 33 km especialy as it has a slight slope down towards Callahora, nice to get there but up hill all the way back. The stard ofmthe VV is a 1.4 km tunnel under...
Just a quick visit on the way to Arnedillo to a 6th Century Roban bridge. One of the best examples in Spain. It is little bit difficult to park in the town, but coaches park on the end of the bridge away from town.
